empty directories

Ok,

Found te problem. The empty directories don't remain when you change metadata. They remain when you delete a book from the library.

As far as the "," and ";" are concerned. AbeBooks for example, uses this format:

Kernighan, Brian W.; Ritchie, Dennis M.

While amazon uses this:

by Brian W. Kernighan (Author), Dennis M. Ritchie (Author)

The local online book stores for example use this format:
J. Farrow, J. Clark

So I guess there's no real standard way to write this. If it's not too hard, I would really appreciate if we could configure which character splits the name and surname and which character splits authors.

One more thing. When it comes to that button for automatic author sort generating. Would it be hard to include support for multiple authors also? That's probably the lowest priority thing since most books only have one author but still, it would be nice.
